053 Coquettish
Lan Ajiu swallowed his saliva and said enviously: "Sister Erya. You're so beautiful."
Shangguan Erya frowned. Squinted to Zihan, who was preparing his clothes to the side.
Zihan spread his hands innocently." Master. It's your most plain garment."
"Hey......" Lan Ajiu immediately sighed. Sister, don't blame others. It really has nothing to do with this garment. You look good in whatever you wear."
She mysteriously leaned over." But I found out that my sister changed the mansion and the whole person was different."
"Where is the difference."
Lan Ajiu held Shangguan Erya and replied as she walked: "Hmm...... I can't say it either. It's a very different temperament. He's really the head of the family."
"Where is it like you say." Shangguan Erya tapped the tip of her nose. Maybe it's more comfortable to go out of the house than before."
"I really envy my sister. If only I could go out and stay alone."
"If you're bored, come and stay in my house for a while."
Lan Ajiu's eyes lit up. Really."
"Of course." Shangguan Erya agreed.
"It's wonderful." Lan Ajiu said coquettishly: "My sister is so good to me. You don't know at home though I'm a girl and not harsh. But I didn't have anyone to play with. The brothers got married. Busy with their own work. Now that I'm older, I can't play with me like I did when I was a kid."
Lan Ajiu's unspeakable sorrow." When you grow up, it makes people sad."
"No matter how it changes. They will always love you."
"That's what my sister said." Lan Ajiu cheered up. Stick out your tongue." I'm just whining too. If my sister doesn't dislike me, I'll come to stay another day."
Two people finalize the matter. Walked out of the county lord's mansion.
The county lord's mansion in Kyoto is only the Shangguan Erya family. The emperor chose a house in the suburbs. Not far from the city gates.
There aren't many people here. On weekdays, it looks clean.
But the streets were crowded with people on this day. Even Shangguan Erya was surprised." There are more people than on that day."
"yes. It was just the boudoir woman who came out that day. Today, young and old are coming to the streets to see the return of King Nan."
On both sides of the city gates on the streets. There are also shops upstairs and downstairs that are crowded with people. Even those who sell things are no longer in business. All gave way to the people to stand in the door and watch the excitement.
The streets are bustling with shouting. It's just crowded.
Lan Ajiu led Shangguan Erya and finally squeezed into a shop street. The shopkeeper was squeezed out of the door. Seeing Lan Ajiu, he obviously knew it.
"Miss Nine. You're finally here."
"Is there still a place upstairs?" Lan Ajiu looked up. I couldn't help but mutter." That's a lot of people."
"Yes, yes, yes. How can we not keep our own shop for you?"
Shangguan Erya also heard that this was the Lan family's own shop. I heard that the fifth son of the Lan family is a business wizard. Many shops in Kyoto are his property.
The shopkeeper is also amazing. Squeeze a way out of front. Didn't let Shangguan Erya and Lan Ajiu collide at all.
All the way up to the top. The shopkeeper opened the door at the door. Smiled: "This attic is not for receiving guests. On weekdays, the fifth young master is here to handle affairs. Please Miss Nine today."
"It's already good." Lan Ajiu praised again and again. I'm sorry for you to serve another pot of tea."
"Miss Nine is polite. It's a small one. I'll come when I go."
The shopkeeper obediently closed the door. Shangguan Erya glanced around. I saw that the whole wall on the right hand side was made of bookshelves. Full of books.
Lan Ajiu smiled and hugged Shangguan Erya. My sister sits."
"This is your fifth brother's shop."
"yes. My fifth brother is a businessman. But I love to read strange books."
After speaking. Lan Ajiu couldn't help but look out excitedly.
Shangguan Erya also looked outside. There are people everywhere. There are already people from the government who are putting order in order at both ends of the street.
"Why did the emperor suddenly summon King Nan back?" Shangguan Erya asked casually.
Then. The shopkeeper outside the door brought tea in and went out quietly.
Lan Ajiu poured tea for her. He replied: "Originally, the first emperor died, and the king of the south should come back to mourn. But garrisoning the frontier is a big deal. will be delayed forever. In addition, the drought on the border has eased a while ago. The King of the South is on the fold. The emperor was grateful for the brotherly love and ordered the king of the south to return to Kyoto to worship the emperor. But don't bring a single soldier."
Shangguan Erya fell silent. The emperor will be grateful for the brotherly love.
Ji Zhiqing killed his father and killed his brother, where would he care about a brother who was not related by blood.
There must be another purpose for the sudden return of the King of the South.
The king of the south has his own army on the border. The slightest mistake can be full of uncertainties. Don't let him come back with a soldier now. Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by.
But in the end, it's a show of goodwill. Or take the opportunity to harm others?
Shangguan Erya lowered his eyes. Take the emperor's man. There's no way he's going to fall into the hands of forbearance. Besides, once the king of the south is dead. The border soldiers who followed him for ten years are likely to rebel. The borders are chaotic, and foreign enemies will invade.
She can figure it out. It is impossible for the emperor not to be worried.
That is to say, there will be no danger when the king of the south returns.
"Looks like someone is coming......"
Lan Ajiu's voice interrupted Shangguan Erya's musings. She didn't have time to look up yet. I heard Lan Ajiu say again: "That...... It seems to be the eldest prince."
"Oh."
Shangguan Erya got up and looked down. Sure enough, I saw Ji Fanchen coming to the city gate with a few officials.
No wonder there were soldiers just now to sort out the order.
However, Ji Fanchen's arrival just confirmed Shangguan Erya's speculation. The emperor will not murder the king of the south. He also sent the eldest prince to pick him up in person. Showing the importance of this brother.
"The emperor actually sent the eldest prince to pick up the king of the south." Lan Ajiu snorted.
"As you say. The king of the south has prestige."
"But the eldest prince is a straw bale." Lan Ajiu snorted. It's better to let the second prince come."
Shangguan Erya is drinking tea. I almost squirted it out in one gulp. Lan Ajiu is telling the truth.
She and Ji Fanchen are not familiar with each other. But from the previous contact, it can be seen that this eldest prince really has no brains.
It's no wonder that the emperor prefers Ji Cangzi. It's really a big prince who can't take on a big responsibility.
It's just that this time Ji Cangzi and the happy thing made the emperor unhappy. Otherwise, it is very likely that the person who came to pick up King Nan today is Ji Cangzi.
She doesn't care who will become the crown prince though. But it will never let Ji Cangzi get what he wants. As for Ji Fanchen......
Shangguan Erya stared at the figure in the distance. Ji Fanchen looked to the side with an impatient expression. Snorted coldly in his heart: Nanliang Kingdom can't be handed over to this person.
That's all that's left for a very non-existent monsoon...... Maybe she should discuss this matter with Ji Xinian.
Rao is Shangguan Erya's skills are profound. The people around couldn't hear what Ji Fanchen said.
But she saw at a glance who the man who was following Ji Fanchen was.
Shangguan Erya narrowed her eyes. whispered to Lan Ajiu: "Ji Fanchen's side is Prime Minister Chen's son."
Lan Ajiu nodded. It's him. Chen Shuo."
Shangguan Erya remembered that Chen Shuo had become a waiter in the Hanlin Academy. It's not surprising that he follows the Great Prince every day.
Then. Suddenly there were cheers all around. The crowd shouted, "King Nan. It's the King of the South."
Lan Ajiu was already leaning against the window and stretched out half of her body. Excitedly screamed." Look, sister."
Shangguan Erya is not interested. But he couldn't stand Lan Ajiu's coaxing. She laughed and leaned her hands on the window and looked out. Sure enough, someone at the gate of the city in the distance rode a tall brown and black horse slowly.
"Sister, did you see that?" Lan Ajiu exclaimed. Nanwang is really handsome."
Shangguan Erya twitched the corners of her mouth. Wide-eyed to see. Except that you can only see that the clothes on King Nan's body are red. He was followed by five swords-wielding guards. She couldn't even tell if his nose was tall or short. Where can you see handsome.
Lan Ajiu didn't hear Shangguan Erya answer. Strangely I looked back and saw that she couldn't help but laugh. Bu Yi said: "My sister didn't even look at it. The king of the south is really tall and mighty......"
She mysteriously leaned in front of Shangguan Erya and winked. He whispered: "I heard that King Nan is still unmarried. This time when he returned to Beijing, the emperor intended to marry him. Didn't my sister get the notice to go to the dinner tonight?"
Shangguan Erya shrugged. No one notified me. If you want to marry the king of the south, you won't choose me."
She didn't care much.
Lan Ajiu felt a little strange. I thought that there were many ladies who were invited. Even she. Why don't you have Sister Erya?
Now there are no princesses in Kyoto. Sister Erya is the most noble. Enough to be worthy of the king of the south.
She was puzzled. Some are anxious for Shangguan Erya. Dissatisfied: "It must be my sister who changed the mansion. The person who sent the letter didn't know and didn't inform you."
Shangguan Erya looked at her with a smile." You obviously like the king of the south. But they don't mind if I go to the night party. You're the only one who is so stupid."
This sentence is obviously a praise for Lan Ajiu. But it made her blush. A mouthful of denial." I don't like the king of the south."
She turned her head coquettishly and pretended to ignore the person. But Shangguan Erya frowned unconsciously.
Ruo Ajiu really likes King Nan. It's really not easy to do. In any case, the emperor will not marry the daughter of the Lan family to the king of the south.
That's the two major military power families of Nanliang.
Just thinking about it. The king of the south had already ridden to the nearest place. happened to come to Ji Fanchen's side.
Ji Fanchen gave his hand." Uncle Xiao Huang hasn't seen you for a long time. My nephew has been ordered by my father to welcome you back to the court."
He only performed the rites of the juniors. According to the rank, he is just a prince and has no titles.
Then. Shangguan Erya saw the appearance of King Nan clearly. Dressed in red. Foot staring riding boots. Gesture leisurely grasping the reins. The green silk is scattered straight on the chest. A few wisps swept across his neck with the wind. Already fair skin in the afternoon sun. His skin is more crystal clear. Glamorous in color.
The man had a pair of good-looking Danfeng eyes. The pupil is like the amber of the Western Regions. Eyebrows raised. The bridge of the nose is high. The beautiful lips are shaped like blood. The big red robe was loosely draped over the body. The neckline is trimmed with a white fox fur. Slightly open. Refined collarbones looming. It looks even more glamorous.
This is the most beautiful man Shangguan Erya has ever seen. is different from Ning Chenjun's gentleness. Disagree with Ji Xinian's evil spirit. Nanwang can be described in four words: coquettish.
Nanwang is so beautiful that she is ashamed of herself.
